I think many of us were caught out.

Like with you, the temperature plumeted and the roads were awash with rivers of water. Progress was impossible and utterly miserable – I sheltered for awhile and then turned back and went home! I’ve never felt so miserable! Pathetic, huh?

I had a ticket for Box Hill. A nice Army officer let me take my Brompton into the spectator area (“as long as orcs covered, Sir!” Then pedalled to a friend’s in Aldershot. On Sunday we went to a Brompton meet and ride in the New Forest. Just two showers all day. Now I’m on a train at the start of my journey to Hampton Court for the Time Trials!
